I picked up an 8cyl on the weekend. Its out of a 1979 Sportsman cube van, 3 speed auto. I was told it was a 318, but while browsing the internet looking for more info on the motor, someone said to look on the front left side of the block and thats where I can find the displacement. Well, the number on the block was this: 4006830-360-9....so, now i dont really know what that means, but if thats the number thats showing my displacement, i dont see a 318 anywhere in there...am i getting my hopes up for nothing here or do i have a 360 and not a 318??
thanx
